Opinions please!

So back in May, we bought new bedroom furniture. Since then I have been trying to find a new duvet cover that made Gabe and I both happy. He wants white and I want girly. So I think I found one from West Elm that we both like. But I want ya'll opinion on it.

We have black bedroom furniture so I love the idea of white against it. I also want to be able to change out accent colors easily. Right now I'm loving black, white, and yellow. I also love black, white, grey, and blue.

Anyway, we had a busy weekend! A girl that I cheered with at UCA got married yesterday in Heber (where Gabe is from). So we spent the day visiting at his parents before the wedding that night. Today, I cleaned, ran some errands, and caught up on homework. Three more weeks of summer school!! And then I get my week and a half of summer break before the fall semester starts back up. Speaking of fall, I just want to mention again how I can't wait for it to be here. I'm looking forward to Starbucks pumpkin spice lattes, wearing jeans again, less humidity, football season, Halloween, and starting my final semester of college! What are ya'll looking forward to most about fall?

Hope ya'll had a good weekend!!

It's a slow week people!

Oh my goodness this week is going by so slow for me! A lot of my problem is that I've been seriously lacking energy lately. Almost to the point that I'm wondering if I have mono or something. (great!) I've been getting enough sleep and eating well and of course taking my vitamins. I don't feel sick, just so so so tired. It honestly may just be the heat dragging me down.
-Anywho, my Summer II classes are going pretty well. I'm glad to be back in the biology department. My brief stint in physics was terrible. Not my thing at all. I'm taking microbiology this semester and I love it! I'm the nerd who gets so excited in lab while looking at bacteria. Maybe I've found my calling? :)
-My new obsession lately? No bake cookies! These were a childhood favorite for me that I recently rediscovered. I seriously have to stop myself from eating all of them in one sitting.
-My birthday is in three weeks!!
-Gabe is cooking dinner tonight and came home with a couple of movies. One of them being The Bounty Hunter with Jennifer Antison. I've heard it's terrible, but I still want to see it.

Anyway, I hope ya'lls week is going by faster than mine! Happy Wednesday!

So I am officially over Summer. It's to hot and humid! All I can think about is jeans, boots, cardigans, and being able to put makeup on without it melting right off. Oh and Razorback football :) (Go Hogs!) The problem is, in Arkansas the temps really don't feel like fall until mid-October. We try to dress for fall and risk heat stroke in September. Anyway, I am officially done buying summer clothes. I bought an incredibly cute pair of booties on Saturday and since they are suede, they must wait. I'll post pictures of them at some point when I'm not lazy and actually can go look for my camera.

I've been looking for a cute fall/winter bag that has a classic look. While I LOVE Chanel bags, lets be honest here, I can't afford them! I'm in college for crying out loud! But I do love this Kate Spade bag that has a Chanel look and is much more wallet friendly. Though it will still require some saving on my end. I think with some of my birthday money it might be a possibility.

Something else inspiring me lately are the August issues of Vogue and InStyle. Not only are they full of fall ads. (I love ads, I know I'm weird) They have two beautiful, classy ladies on the covers.

Also I hope I age like these two. Gwen is in her 30s and looks better than most 20somethings. And Courtney Cox is making 40s look downright hot! Anyone that knows me knows that I've already declared war on aging. Courtney has admitted to using Botox and I think with her it looks natural. Thoughts?

Hope ya'll are having a great week!!

Oh and I'm looking for a good book to read. Any suggestions? I've been disappointed with my summer reading list.

Celebrity Style- Olivia Palermo

If I could trade closets with anyone today, it would be Olivia Palermo. She's always so effortlessly chic. Say what you will about her personality, but you've got to admit, the girls got style!

It's Friday! We have plans tonight to eat at Bonefish with friends and then maybe to a movie. Have a fabulous weekend!

Dear Jimmy Choo,

How dare you tell me I can't have these shoes until November. NOVEMBER! My birthday is in August and this is all I asked for.
But sadly it looks like I will not be getting them since my size is apparently the hardest one to get. :(

Sincerely,

A sad birthday girl

Yes I know I'm being melodramatic over a seemingly simple pair of shoes, but I'm one of those people who gets stuck on something and can't let it go. This is what has happened with the Jimmy Choo Lilac Point Toe Pumps in Nude. Apparently only available at Saks, they won't ship until November. My birthday is in 3 weeks and I told Gabe this is all I wanted. Now I honestly have no idea what to tell him. I should be practical and ask for the new vacuum cleaner I so desperately need, but where's the fun in that. Oh well, I probably don't need another pair of shoes anyway.

Hope everyone has had a good week. Sorry I've been MIA. It's been hectic around here.
